Chapter 252 The Terrifying Wolf Cavalry
The wolf cavalry also spotted the crusaders in the distance. When they saw the trees on both sides of the crusaders and the waiting nirvana, the leader made a gesture.
The wolf cavalry behind him all stopped, and turned over and got down the giant wolf, sitting on the ground one after another.
Tina frowned and asked, “What do you say these guys are doing? We just stopped fighting in front of them but rested in place. Are we waiting for the big army?”
The leader of the Crusade also frowned, “I didn’t expect that half-orcs could be so calm. The endurance of giant wolves is far less than that of horses. What they stand out is explosive power, and now there are half-orcs heavier than humans on their backs. The consumption is even greater, so they need to rest before charging.”
“Then they will attack soon?”
The Crusader leader said seriously, “Yes, the marching speed of the orcs infantry is quite slow, and the wolf cavalry must not wait. The most important thing now is when the orcs arrive, the corpse of the wolf cavalry lies here. Or… our corpses.”
In theory, giant wolves are also a kind of Magical Beasts. The orcs of Chignas like to keep this Magical Beasts in captivity. After thousands of years of training, the shrewd orcs have trained this Magical Beasts to look like puppies. Same loyalty, yet retained their brutality to the enemy.
After the Goddess War broke out, the half-orcs and the orcs were in the camp of the Dark Goddess, so the half-orcs also began to raise giant wolves in captivity. Unfortunately, they obtained the giant wolf from the orcs, but due to their own IQ problems, they have not been able to put the wolf cavalry into it normally. In war.
After the fall of the Goddess of Darkness and the Goddess of Light, the cooperative relationship between the Orcs and the Orcs was completely broken. Coupled with the blockade of The Underworld Desert, as everyone knows, the wolf cavalry has always been the patent of the Chignas Orcs.
“It’s really an honor to be able to personally command a battle with the wolf cavalry in my lifetime. It really makes me excited!” The young man said with a smile.
“Is it that difficult to fight wolf cavalry?” Tina didn’t understand.
“Wolf cavalry, as a very powerful weapon, has been kept and hidden by the orcs of Chignas. Unless you push them in a hurry, they will never be sent out to fight because they can’t afford to lose.”
Half an hour later, as the leading wolf knight stood up from the ground, the other wolf knights also stood up. They climbed on the back of the giant wolf and stared fiercely at the crusaders in the distance. The giant wolves began Moving, the wolf cavalry even slowly discharged a cone formation.
“The orcs are still in formation?” Tina asked in surprise.
The leader of the Crusade was also very surprised. The half-orcs who could not even forge armors and weapons would put out a cone-shaped formation dedicated to cavalry charges, which made everyone fall through their glasses.
However, the leader of the Crusaders was relieved immediately, and he shouted, “Everyone is ready, the wolf cavalry is going to assault from the front.” After speaking, he even raised his shield and walked to the middle of the team.
“General!!”
“General!! You should stand behind and command!”
The boy shouted loudly, “Shut up, I am not just a commander, I am also a Crusader, I also have the courage to kill the enemy, you say that will only make me think you look down on me.”
The Crusaders stopped talking, they just looked at the young man and nodded slightly to him.
What is the most important thing about cavalry in the age of cold weapons? It’s not sophisticated equipment, it’s not a huge quantity, but courage!
A force without courage, no matter how well equipped you are, no matter how large your number is, you can only tremble under the horses of the cavalry when facing the cavalry.
The Crusaders are completely at a disadvantage. With long swords and shields, this configuration must withstand a terrible charge before engaging the wolf cavalry.
Although the number of Crusaders is far more than that of Wolf Knights, if you lose your courage, you only need to charge once, and you only need one. Don’t mention anything to break the troops. One charge can completely disperse this team.
Fortunately, the Crusaders of the expedition had nothing else, all they had was courage.
The wolf cavalry in the distance has begun to slowly move towards this side.
The young Crusader leader yelled, “Warriors of St. Orteus, I! A follower of the goddess of order, a leader of the Crusade! A crusader, I am also a man, a man who is not afraid of death, I will fight with you together! I will fight with you to the end.”
“I will win together with you, or! Death together!!! For the goddess!!!”
The blood of the Crusaders was completely ignited, and they shouted together.
“For the goddess!!”
“Long live the goddess!!”
Tina was also infected by their blood, unknowingly she also screamed with the Crusaders, and then she made an impulsive move, she put on the crusader’s equipment, and resolutely stood in the team.
The combat effectiveness of the cavalry in the cold weapon era is very powerful, and the special cavalry invented by the orcs like the wolf cavalry is undoubtedly more powerful than the cavalry.
In the process of infantry versus cavalry, regardless of the victory or defeat, the casualties of the soldiers in the first row who received the frontal impact of the cavalry were undoubtedly the greatest.
Because even if they are strong enough to give the cavalry into the charging state a fatal blow in an instant, the horses weighing hundreds of kilograms or even a ton will hit them under the action of inertia. This result is undoubtedly fatal. of.
Tina didn’t stand in the front row, she just stood at the very edge of the middle. Although her blood was ignited now, she hadn’t burned her brain yet.
The charge of the cavalry was terrible. The soldiers in the first row had to take up this powerful charge. If they were afraid and ran away, then obviously the people in the second row would be unlucky.
It was not only the cavalry that was facing him, it was a group of cannibalistic beasts, and they were far more terrifying than ordinary cavalry.
However, based on the current situation, the Crusaders will not run away, so the Crusaders in the first row will definitely die. Tina doesn’t want to stand in the first row and be hit to death. Although she can be resurrected, she will be killed. The body deformed in the collision is uncomfortable.
The Crusaders clenched their swords and shielded them in front of them, staring in the direction of the wolf cavalry.
After approaching the Crusaders for a certain distance, the wolf cavalry began to slowly accelerate, first strolling at 00 meters, then trotting at 400 meters, accelerating at 300 meters, and officially entering the charging state at 200 meters.
“Wow~~~~Ah~~~~” The howl resounding through the earth remembered that it was made by the half-orc and the giant wolf he stepped on. This kind of shouting can definitely make ordinary soldiers tremble and look out of the wind. .
But their opponent was the crusaders of the expedition, the crusaders were not moved at all, they still stood there silently like a warrior.
Tina in the team squinted. Although the speed of the formation of the conical formation of this unit is slow, their charge position and distance, as well as the shout, are definitely trained through rigorous training.
Even Tina, who does not know the history of the mainland, understands that all the arms of the Orcs race will not be trained. They have no organization or formation concept. Fighting will only charge separately, but why does this wolf cavalry… …
Tina has no chance to think much, because the wolf cavalry has rushed over, explosive power, this is explosive power, the explosive power of giant wolves is far stronger than that of horses, and the distance of 200 meters is that moment for giant wolves.
The earth began to tremble, and the number of nearly a thousand wolf cavalry was already in front of them, and even some soldiers could already see the fangs of those giant wolves and the dripping saliva.
0 meters…40 meters…30 meters…20 meters…10 meters. Just ten meters away from the Crusaders, when the collision was about to occur, the wolf cavalry did something that shocked everyone.
The giant wolf running at the forefront jumped up with a heavy orc on his back. This jump directly jumped over the crusaders in the first row and rushed into the formation of the second row of crusaders.
Jumping power! There is another big difference between giant wolves and horses.
The heavy weight of the giant wolf directly overwhelmed the second row of Crusaders to the ground. It was obviously impossible for those overwhelmed Crusaders to have a living.
The first row of Crusaders were instantly wiped out by the wolf cavalry in the second row without any assistance behind them.
If Tina just thought about which half-orc came up with to train wolf cavalry, she was thinking about which orc or human was training wolf cavalry, because half-orcs had absolutely no such wisdom to come up with such tactics.
Fortunately, the Crusaders made many obstacles on both sides, so the charge diameter of the wolf cavalry was greatly shortened, and the casualties caused by this charge were not very large.
It is very unfavorable for the cavalry to charge and engage in a melee with the infantry. If it is an ordinary cavalry, it will retreat and leave a distance for a second charge, but the wolf cavalry does not need it!
The half-orc sitting on the back of the giant wolf wielded a heavy two-handed giant axe, and every one of his axe heads could chop down a crusader.
Even if the Crusaders block with a shield, they will only hear a click. The shield is chopped and people are chopped down. The Crusaders are not skeletons. They are humans. Fractures and massive blood loss will cause their deaths.
These half-orcs wore chain armor, and their defense was obviously stronger than before. It was not a grade. The Crusaders had to pierce the chain armor with several swords, but the giant wolf would never give them a chance.
Another difference between horses and giant wolves at this time is revealed. Those giant wolves open their big mouths full of fangs. It only takes one bite to bite off the head of the Crusaders. It only takes one paw to make one The Crusaders were beaten into flight.
The opponent of the Crusaders is not only the half-orc riding the wolf, but the wolf is really difficult to deal with.
Occasionally, more than a dozen crusaders pulled the orcs from the back of the giant wolf and stabbed them to death with swords, but the battle was not over yet. The giant wolf who lost its owner did not panic and flee like a horse, but attacked the cross more fiercely. military.
The propulsion ability of the wolf cavalry in the melee is also very terrible, because of the strong jumping power, if the front is blocked, they can jump over and attack other crusaders.
Under the attack of the mighty wolf cavalry, the Crusaders fell like a piece of wheat. It was only a short while before Tina, who was standing in the middle, could already see the wolf’s fangs.
Tina frowned, “After such a short while, the army of 20,000 people was beaten by less than a thousand wolf cavalry…”
